To all my veterinary colleagues working in emergency medicine; to doctors, nurses, and other human medical workers; to police officers firefighters, EMTs, and other first responders; to people working in animal shelters and staffing adoption events; to every restaurant or retail worker, every flight attendant and pilot; to our armed forces; and to everyone who is working to make sure we’re safe, fed, and happy this holiday weekend: thank you.
And to those of us lucky enough to be free to barbecue, swim, and hit the beaches, Happy Labor Day and don’t forget those who aren’t as fortunate as we are!
